Hi Andreas,

I'm glad you like Grantlee.

It then gets a bit ugly with adding the library since I have to patch the paths for Qt inside the lib files. For the main Qt application MacDeployQt does a fine job but not for the DLLs.

I know nothing about mac deployment issues I'm afraid. People on the 
kde-mac mailing list (CC'd) might know how to solve your library 
deployment on Mac issues.

I don't think that would be in compliance with the LGPL, so I would have 
to give you a different license. I can't start doing that or else 
everyone would want one :).

I hope the issue is resolvable for you.

Cheers,

Steve.
